HTMS is a private owned
company, founded in 1996 by a group of sealing specialist with currently a
combined experience of more than 100 years. The plant is located in Mechelen
, Belgium.

High Tech Metal Seals, short
HTMS designs and manufactures elastic or resilient metal seals, such as
Metal O rings, Metal C Rings and other metallic seals.

These metal seals, mostly used
under harsh conditions, simultaneously require extreme tightness. To obtain
the desired maximum leakage rates, Metal Seals are often plated with soft
metals or even coated with PTFE, better known as Teflon®.

Because of the quality
requirements for this special electro-plating deposits, HTMS decided to
start up its own plating department.

Now after 10 years of
experience HTMS offers this quality service also to other metallic products.

In the new building we have
invested in a new state of the art plating installation, located in a 150 m²
room.

HTMS is dedicated to produce
resilient metal seals under the most stringent quality procedures. The
company is also ISO9000 certified.

Applications for technical
plating are found in a variety of industries and applications.

Resilient metal seals from High
Tech Metal Seals NV are used in the most extreme environmental conditions.
Spring Energised Metal C Rings are used under extreme conditions where
temperature can range from cryogenic up to extreme high temperatures, such
as 800°C.
To serve the harsh conditions in today’s Oil and Gas exploration, High Tech
Metal Seals NV designs and manufactures resilient metals seals which comply
and exceed the ISO 15848 leakage requirements for valves intended for
application with volatile air pollutants and hazardous fluids. High Tech
Metals Seals are manufactured from high alloy materials so that the finished
product complies with NACE MR0175 requirements. Silver plated Metal O rings
or Metal C Rings, because of ductile layer are successfully used in high
vacuum applications. Silver plated or PTFE coated spring energised C Rings
and Metal C Rings comply and exceed the ISO 15848 leakage requirements, from
cryogenic temperatures up to extreme high temperatures and pressures. In
nuclear applications, particle research, and other radiation application,
typically high load resilient metal seals, such as spring energized metal C
Rings or Metal O Rings, with a ductile layer of silver are successfully
used. High Tech Metal Seals NV, seals for extreme environmental conditions
are particularly suited for high pressure. The system pressure assist in
maintaining intimate contact with the mating flanges.
